Davina had a fight with her boyfriend Caleb and she was at Rossenaus when Natali walked in and saw her sitting against the bar.
- "Trouble in paradise?" Natali asks as she approaches her.
- When Davina hears her voice and sees her she rolls her eyes, "Leave me alone."
- "You don't mind if I sit here, do you?" Natali asks even if she knows the answer and sits next to her.
- "Actually I do." Davina replies.
- Natali smiles, "I don't care." she says before ordering herself a glass of wine.
- "You have your club, why did you come here to drink?" Davina questioned, "What do you want from me?"
- "I can drink wherever I want." Natali tells her.
A few moments later a bartender gave Natali her glass of wine and he also gave Davina another drink.
- "I didn't order this." Davina says to him.
- "It's from that guy across from you." He tells her and points his finger at him as she turns to see who it was, but she was disappointed when she saw that it wasn't who she wanted it to be.
- "You know the best way to forget someone is to hook up with another guy." Natali tells her.
- "I don't want to forget anyone." Davina replies.
- "What happened, there must be a reason why you're drinking?" Natali asked.
- "Why do you care?" Davina says.
- "I don't, I'm just curious." Natali replies.
- Davina takes a sip of her new drink, "We just had a fight."
- "First one?" Natali asks, "The first one is the worse. Then you get used to it."
- "I guess you're talking from experience." Davina says and takes another sip.
- "Yeah, a thousand years experience." Natali says.
After that, there was silence between them until suddenly Davina started to feel dizzy. She almost fell off her chair but Natali catches her.
- "Is she okay?" Bartender asks.
- "She is fine. She's just drunk." Natali tells him and takes Davina with her to Fangtasia.
The next morning Marcel was looking for Davina, he found out that she was last seen at Rossenaus and he heard from a bartender that she left with a woman who had dark hair and red lipstick and he right away knew who that was. He came knocking at the door of Fangtasia and he woke up all vampires who were there.
- Just as Eric opened the front door Marcel asked, "Where is Natali? I need her to come here right now."
- "I'm here." Natali's voice was heard as she walked down the stairs.
- "Where is Davina? What did you do to her?" Marcel asks angrily.
- "She is fine and in the guest room." Natali tells him, "She wasn't feeling good so I brought her here."
- Marcel furrowed his eyebrows, "Why would you do that?"
- "I don't know how she got those bartenders to give her alcohol when she's not 21 years old." Natali says, knowing that Marcel didn't know Davina was drinking.
- "What?" Marcel asked.
- Natali nodded, "Yeah, she had some issues with her boyfriend so she got drunk. All teenagers do that."
- "Let me in." Marcel yells.
- "No can do." Natali replies.
Just then Davina walks down the stairs, she heard Marcel's voice so she came. She didn't even remember that Natali brought her to Fangtasia.
- "What am I doing here?" Davina asks.
- "You don't remember anything?" Natali questioned.
- "No." Davina quickly replies.
- "You were wasted." Natali tells her.
- "But I didn't even drink that much." Davina says as she walks towards Marcel.
- "You did something to her." Marcel stated before he wrapped his arms around Davina, glad that she was alive.
- "I haven't done anything, you can go now." Natali says losing her patience, then she moves her wrist and closes the door right in front of them.
Natali entered compound just as Cami was leaving and Klaus was walking quickly after her. Natali noticed that something was going on with the two of them.
- "What's happening?" Natali asks but no one answers her so she continues to go towards the living room where she found Freya.
- "What's with that tension between Klaus and Cami? Natali asked her.
- "Oh, you didn't hear?" Freya says, "Cami is in transition, but she doesn't want to feed and Klaus can't accept that."
- "Really?" Natali says as idea poops into her mind, "That's exactly what we need."
- "What?" Freya asked narrowing her eyebrows in confusion.
- "A vampire who's in transition." Natali tells her, "We use her to lure Tristan into a trap. Cami is stuck between two worlds right now, she's not dead and she's not alive so she safe from Serratura."
- "That actually solves our problems." Freya points out.
- "Exactly, so call Klaus and tell him to come back." Natali told her.
While Freya was explaining Klaus their plan Natali heard that someone walked inside of the compound. She vamp-speeds into a courtyard and sees a human tourist who was placing a box and a letter onto the table.
- "What's that?" Natali asks as she appears behind him.
- A human turns around and says, "A delivery from Tristan de Martel."
- "Klaus said he's going to talk with Cami about our plan." Freya says as she comes into the courtyard, just then she sees Natali who was facing a human, "Who are you?" she asks.
- "A compelled human that Tristan send to deliver us this." Natali replies and points at the box on the table.
Freya walks toward the box and opens the letter first and begins to read it's content.
- "What did he say?" Natali asked when she saw a horrified look on her face.
Freya didn't answer her she clutched her chest with one hand and a piece of parchment in another. She was staring at a small, cream-colored box on the table. Just then Elijah returned to the courtyard when he saw Freya he immediately sensed something is wrong and rushes towards her.
- "Freya? What's happening?" Elijah asked concerned.
- Freya's eyes were filled with tears, "A messenger came. Some compelled tourist. He left this.."
Freya, whose face is covered in tears, gestures toward the box on the table and Elijah, both concerned and suspicious, gently lifts the corner of the lid to the box while Natali watches from behind. When Elijah sees the bloody heart inside, he immediately shuts the lid and takes a deep breath to prepare for what he's about to learn.
- "Who?" Elijah simply asks.
- "Jackson." Freya replied.
Elijah closes his eyes and sighs for a moment, overwhelmed by this news. Freya holds up the letter in her hand, which has a message handwritten in print. She sighs and sits on the couch as Elijah takes the letter and begins to read its contents: "Dearest friends, please find enclosed the heart of Jackson. Hayley's will follow unless you meet me at Coltrane's Autoshop, 1268 Adderly in the ninth. Kind regards, Tristan." Elijah sighs, exhausted by the shocks he's received today.
- "So, unless we meet their demands, Hayley will be next." Elijah says.
In the living room, Klaus has just joined Elijah, Freya, and Natali so that they can begin to set up their plan of attack against the de Martels.
- "Two Original vampires and two powerful witches against an army of miscreants? I'm rather looking forward to it." Klaus says as he walks in.
- "He wants the Serratura, that's why he kidnapped Jackson and Hayley. He thinks we're going to give that to him in exchange for her." Natali points out.
- Elijah looks momentarily uncomfortable, knowing that Natali doesn't care if Hayley gets out dead or alive, "As long as Tristan has her the advantage is all his."
- "Well, then we should take that advantage from him." Freya turns to Klaus with a knowing smirk, "We're gonna need something that belonged to his sister."
BACK ROADS OF NEW ORLEANS
Aurora is dozing in the backseat of an SUV when she suddenly stirs awake. She notices the Strix associate of Tristan's sitting next to her, but before she can ask what they're doing, the vampire injects her in the neck with a prefilled syringe of medication that makes her groggy and sedated. She groans in pain and rubs her throat before passing out again. After a moment, the Strix guard and driver see that Natali is standing in the middle of the road ahead of them. She opens his arms wide and casts a spell, "Sispann la agresè."
In the SUV, the guard turns to address the driver as he keeps his eyes on Natali, "Run her down."
The driver nods and presses down the gas pedal to go faster, but after Natali watches them for a moment, she twists both of her wrists inward, causing the SUV to violently flip over and roll down the road at least a dozen times. Once the vehicle finally loses momentum right next to where Natali is standing, the Strix guard and driver groan in pain as they kick open the doors to pull themselves out. The Strix vampires then start to walk toward Natali menacingly as they pop their broken bones back into the correct positions.
- "Hello, boys." Natali greets them with a smile, but before they can even try to lunge for her, Elijah appears and stakes them both in the heart simultaneously, "Goodbye boys." she adds.
Elijah doesn't even watch as the vampires' collapse and die, he simply shrugs and buttons up his pea coat.
After they kidnapped Aurora, Natali went back to Freya to help her with a spell. She was in the bell tower where she set up everything for a spell. On the tables and candleabrums, Freya has arranged hundreds of lit white candles. In front of them, she has a stone cauldron full of blood and a variety of animal bones scattered around the candles. In her hands is a large burlap poppet with a strand of blonde hair pinned to the top.
- "So this is going to be the same as when we were finding Dahlia, except this time our enemies are quite stupid." Natali says and smiles.
Freya smiles back at her and clutches Natali's right hand so she can channel her while she holds the poppet in her left. They then begin the chanting, "Kache l'nan san. Jen chèch je yo."
As they chant, Freya dips the "legs" of the poppet into the cauldron of blood.
At PATRICK'S DOCK, Elijah and Klaus are waiting inside of the warehouse when a half-dozen Strix vampires vamp-speed into the room. The brothers start to walk toward them as another few dozen or so vampires join them.
- "Here they come." Klaus smirks.
Finally, Tristan, Aya, and Marcel stop several feet away from the Mikaelson brothers, looking displeased as they all stare at each other.
- "Gentlemen. I wish I could say it was a pleasure." Tristan tells them.
- Klaus nods in acknowledgment and gives Marcel a knowing look, "Marcellus. Made your bed with the enemy, I see."
- Marcel smiles fakely, "Membership has its privileges."
- Klaus smirks, "Let's get on with this, shall we?"
Tristan turns back to a tall, blonde vampire woman and nods, so she and other male vampire bring the still-bloodied and shackled Hayley forward. She's so weak she can't even stand on her own and when the vampires let go of her, she collapses onto the floor in between the two groups as Elijah and Klaus stares at her in horror.
- "Hayley Marshall-Kenner, only slightly worse for wear. You'll have to forgive her if she seems a bit off. There's enough wolfsbane in her system to kill an entire pack. However, here she is, as requested. Now, where's my sister?" Tristan asked.
- "She lives. You can thank Elijah for that." Klaus sneered. Then he walks toward Tristan so they're standing eye-to-eye, "I wanted to flay her and hang her skin as a flag. Anyway, enough chit-chat. Let's conclude this tedious business, shall we?"
- "My sister first. And, if you're tempted to argue, consider the numbers." Tristan says.
Klaus smirks in amusement and walks even closer to him so that their noses are nearly touching, indicating that he's not threatened by his army. Tristan looks slightly nervous but stands his ground. After a moment, Klaus rolls his eyes and walks over to a rusty green shipping container, which he opens to reveal Aurora sitting inside with a black hood over her head and her wrists bound behind her back.
- Tristan, still suspicious, turns back to Aya and tells her, "If they try anything, attack."
Aya nods in agreement, and Tristan vamp-speeds into the shipping container toward "Aurora". He takes off her hood, and her head rolls on her shoulders, still sedated from the drugs earlier. When Tristan looks back at Aya, Aya nods at the vampires standing guard over Hayley, allowing Klaus and Elijah to take her. "Aurora" wakes up when Tristan starts to break her bonds and smiles at him weakly.
Once they exchanged a few words Tristan pulls "Aurora" to her feed and she wraps her arms around him in a hug. As soon as they stopped hugging "Aurora" pulls out the Serratura and Tristan looks at her warily when he sees the medallion in her hand and slowly reaches out to take it from her, not knowing what she's trying to do.
Before Tristan can react further, "Aurora" slams the Serratura against the wall of the shipping container, which activates its power and causes the warehouse to shake for a moment as though an earthquake has just hit. The medallion remains stuck to the wall, and "Aurora" looks at Tristan with crazed eyes as Tristan, realizing what has just happened, tries to run out of the shipping container and is blocked by an invisible barrier.
- Tristan looks at "Aurora' in horror, "No.. Aurora.. What have you done to us?"
- "Aurora" looks smug as she walks toward Tristan, "Not to us.." She says and much to Tristan's horror she walks right past the barrier and joins Elijah, Klaus and Hayley outside of it, "To you."
"Aurora" turns so she can face Tristan, but suddenly, a magical haze covers her before it is revealed that it was actually Cami the whole time and Natali and Freya just used a glamouring spell to make her appear to be Aurora instead. Tristan stares at them with a look of cold fury from inside the shipping container.
- "What is this?" Tristan asked.
- "You know what they say - payback's a bitch." Cami says.
- Tristan looked horrified, "How is this possible?"
- "The Serratura creates an impenetrable boundary. Nothing living or dead can pass through." Klaus says smugly.
- "And, thanks to your lunatic sister, I'm neither." Cami adds.
- "No. No. NO!" Tristan's eyes widen in alarm when he realizes that he is truly trapped inside of the shipping container forever.
Klaus rushes over to Cami and puts his arm around her to keep her close.
Tristan stares at the Strix vampires, who don't seem to know what they should do.
- "What are you waiting for? Take them! Now!" Tristan gave them an order.
Just as the Strix are about to obey this command, Elijah steps forward to address them himself, putting his body protectively in front of Hayley, who is still barely standing on her feet.
- "Before you rush headlong toward almost certain death.. As your sire, I would like you to employ just a little bit of common sense." Elijah spoke.
- Aya scoffed, "We are ancient vampires, Elijah - each of us almost as strong as you."
- Elijah shrugs, "You might almost be successful in subduing us, but at what price? Most of you will die in the process, and for what? To avenge a fool marching you headlong toward your very extinction in the name of a witch's prophecy? You do realize he engineered absolutely all of this purely to satisfy some petty grievance against my family?" Elijah turns and walks toward the shipping container, smiling fakely at Tristan as he leans against the metal door, "Tristan doesn't care for any of you."
- Tristan was furious, "Stop listening to him!"
- Elijah ignores him and continues, "The only danger here is the choice that you must make. You see, I am not your enemy." He stops in front of Aya and nods in acknowledgment, "It's true, I delivered you into this existence. I can just as easily pluck you out of it. The choice is yours to make."
Aya looks torn but continues to glare at Elijah as though she's entertaining the idea of fighting them anyway. Marcel, seeing what she's about to do, walks over and blocks her way as he whispers in her ear.
- "It's done. The moment has passed. Be smart, Aya. Smarter than Tristan. Don't waste any more of our guys." Marcel tells her.
- Aya doesn't seem pleased that Marcel is ordering her around, but after a moment, she turns back to the rest of the vampires and tells them, "Stand down."
- Tristan only becomes more furious to see that the Strix have been convinced not to avenge him, "You will not abandon me!"
- Aya walks toward where Tristan is trapped in the shipping container and gives him a regretful look, "It's a shame it has to end like this." she says.
- Tristan was enraged, "Aya, this isn't over!"
Aya puts her right hand over her heart in a sort of salute to her former leader.
- "May the ghosts of our fallen keep you company." Aya says coldly.
The Strix then begin to leave the warehouse, Aya included, though Elijah and Hayley stay behind. Tristan continues to shout after them.
